Surface Areas and Volume of a Sphere Exercise 21.26

Solution 1

Sphere has only one surface i.e. curved surface, so number of faces = 1

Hence, correct option is (a).

Solution 2

A hemisphere has two surfaces: one top surface and other curved surface.

T.S.A. = 2∏r2 + (∏r2)   {Area of Top-face = ∏r2}

         = 3∏r2
